Of all the enduring contributions to automotive media that 2002-2015 Top Gear gave us, by far the most impactful (and my favorite) were the cross European races.

The cheap old supercars segment was a fine thing. Dear Spouse still likes to joke about “all its horses have run away!”

The bit when Jeremy drives the Peel P50. It’s funny enough seeing someone of his size squeeze into the world’s smallest car, but when he carries it into the office like a piece of luggage, it really starts going off the rails. Funniest part is when he sits in on the inclusivity meeting while still in the car.

Any episode where they had X budget to buy a car (or scooter) for a specific challenge

Hard to distinguish between all the awesome specials they produced, but for a single segment, my go-to is Jeremy and the Reliant Robin. Can’t watch it without violent fits of laughter, and I’ve watched it many times... Yes, they messed with the Reliant’s differential to make it easier to roll-over, but it’s still…

Any of the specials. They are fantastic. 

The entire Vietnam episode.  That was the peak and everything since has been chasing that high.

Altima was in the shop having it’s bumper duct taped back on.

So what year Altima was she driving?

Take away her license?  What license?  She already didn’t have one, and that didn’t stop her from driving.

What is the point of the legal side if the enforcement side does nothing about it?  They need to take away her license for life at this point...clearly doesn’t care.

Used dish soap the slide immobile/wrecked cars off the flatbed plenty of times.

Obligatory:

His dad, from what I can gather, thinks Elon’s a bit of a dick. He’s not an easy child to love.

did you see that “prove I’m not an emerald mine heir” thing where apparently his dad was like “ummm”

You’re wrong so often it must be a kink.

Elon Musk fan, sweating profusely and trembling: “No, you guys just don’t get it ... it actually makes ... see, in chess sometimes you need to ... he’s so ahead of the curve ...”

Just because Big Man Moneybags buys the community center everyone loves and wants to turn it into condos doesn’t mean you let him. Sometimes you need to have a catchy chant and a bikini car wash to raise enough money to kick his butt back to the big city and leave us alone.

Image trying to make people like you by giving them free stuff, only for them to loudly tell everyone, they don’t want it, never asked for it and aren’t your friend...

There are few things in this world that I’m certain of, but one thing that I know for sure is that Norm Macdonald’s ghost wouldn’t pay for Twitter Blue. This subscription is clearly the work of an imposter ghost. I suspect the ghost of Frank Stallone, who is alive, yet remains the ghost of Frank Stallone.
